DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The book introduces the comprehensive analysis methodology regarding progressive collapse, and the critical issues may happen in concrete structures. Main topics include: the influential parameters of the development of the main load-resisting mechanisms; the dynamic effects with sudden column removal scenarios; the contribution of non-structural components to improve the resilience of concrete structures; uncertainties in progressive collapse analysis. Based on the empirical research of the author and his team, the book provides valuable knowledge in the field of progressive collapse and bridges the gap between academic research and practice.

The challenge of modeling PT prestressed concrete structures lies in the treatment of the interface between the concrete and prestressing tendons. Using MATLAB, this study develops an innovative nonlinear FE formulation which incorporates contact techniques and engineering elements to considerably reduce the need of computational power. This FE formulation has the ability to simulate different PT frame systems with fully bonded, fully unbonded or partially bonded tendons, as well as actual sliding behavior and frictional effects in the tendons. It also allows for the accurate simulation of anchor seating loss.
